I want to become one of those people that drown their sadness in work. It would result in SO much productivity that I'm not sure I could handle it... but I'd be winning at least in some way...

I'll let you know if enough of us get together and host a training workshop.

Don't forget to breathe slowly.

[leastlikely]

Me too. :\

nahhhhh

[grifith_23]

don't do that because eventually the work does not fill in the void

No. There'd be no winning. I've been one of those people, I'd probably be one again if I could, and it sucks. All you accomplish is postponing your problems until they build up in to a giant tidal wave of crap, and as the Sri Lankans can tell you, there's no holding back tidal waves.

The best cure for any of life's ailments is action. Not thought, not desires or wants, not contemplation. Action. There lies the path to being content and happy.

I am quite aware of this. I suppose the only problem with action is that once you decide to do something and actually do it, you run into the chance of failure, which may lead to further disappointment rather than alleviate your previous ailments. And once one has run into a long enough chain of such consecutive failures, it becomes difficult to keep trying. Granted, if you fail so goddamn consistently, perhaps you're just doing something completely wrong...
